Epic video Paul! Hands down the coolest dude on UA-cam. Bringing native back to your area and understanding your environment should be the norm for all. Great job and teaching skills!
Dawg! Ur BACK! I cultivated the 'like' button! What used to be my tiny back lawn I planted my King Palm tree & the rest is populated by wild artichoke bushes (I'm in CA) Bindweed is ma bane. I liked at first cuz it gets a morning glory style flower. Takes over
Fabulous! Heath aster is a good addition to a native lawn alternative. Around the time frog fruit stops producing flowers, heath aster starts flowering providing for pollinators. They work well together also. Good on you for showing native plant spaces can still be manicured!
Hi Paul . Well done , wonderful project . This yard looks so pretty and you can plant Crucas bulbs to enjoy the beauty of the flowers in it . Have a great day . 🌿
Ah….awesome. Fabulous,forward thinking patrons in Minneapolis,St. Paul and Little Canada Minnesota have allowed me to plant Native Trees, shrubs,sedges,rushes,grasses and flowers from street to alley! Native.stand For the planet and the plants!
Great video! I just planted a bunch of frog fruit a couple weeks ago, since our back yard has nothing but dirt and weeds (was real shady before we lost a big tree in the hurricane) and I can't wait for it to take off :-)
Good work! I'm in the process of turning part of my backyard into a native prairie meadow. Keep up the good work. Kill your lawn! Make something better. Go native. Who doesn't love butterflies, birds, bees, and all the little critters. A "perfect" lawn to me just looks like death.
oh dear, i still see a lot of bermuda in there. in the bad spots, i would pull up the frog fruit and recover the ground with cardboard (3 layers) and leave another full year. Frog fruit can compete with bermuda but to get rid of bermuda you have to deprive it of light for a whole calendar year, That is the only thing that has worked for me. my st augustine had a bad year this year with many bad spots now, so i have been plugging frog fruit in the dead spots, hoping the frog fruit and st augustine can cohabitate the lawn. you know you can root your frog fruit in your pond, right? nut sedge is a whole other issue. i have dug down 8-10 inches and removed as many 'nuts' as i could find and it still came back although not as vigorously. Covering nutsedge with a billboard tarp for a calendar year did nothing. The tarp killed most of the bermuda but the nutsedge came back just as strong. When i can't keep digging it up, i cover it with cardboard or a tarp to put it in limbo until i have time to fight again. After 3 years i and gaining on it but have not won yet. i think it is counterproductive to plant in an area with a really tenacious perineal weed infestation because you can't totally deprive the area of light and you can't ruthlessly dig in that area.
There is no Bermuda that showed back up. That nutsedge is a villain like you said. I’m just going to live with it tbh. I tried digging it for half the year and it just kept coming back.
Earth is my planet.. we missed you
Sorry for the wait! Hahaha
missed you too 😁🌼🌼🌼

You'll certainly make Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't cry tears of joy for doing this to your yard.
And aquascape pond would be perfect in this space. Your son and dogs would love it
Dang I appreciate the fact that you put this video together over such a long period of time!

I have morning glories that take over everything. Gorgeous flowers but a pain tbh

Exactly!! I threw a ton of primrose seeds on the lawn so I’m hoping to get a ton of flowers this spring
@@paulplantu I love it!
Take a few rooted pieces out of thickest part and make new plugs for bald spots where u lost a few
When are you going to be on a Texas Gardener episode?👍
Bruh I was just about to slide in the DM's

First like!😁😂
It must be limited to the number of native groundcovers in TX that can take mowing and survive a young active family.
i wanna see the lawn get a nice taper fade
Wouldn’t the point of a native lawn be to NOT have to mow it? Rather than killing the bees and bugs that inhabit it.
Glad to see the value Paul. Hope you and the family are well. The non yard is looking great. Take care. Gary, Tucson
